Chapter 599: Monster

Wang Leyou, male, thirty-three years old, arrived at Ri nation on the ninth. His family filed a police report on the twelfth and officially confirmed him as a missing person on the thirteenth: suspected of being kidnapped by a certain villainous group of Ri nation—everything about this man flashed in Xiao Luo’s brain immediately.

The situation was as creepy as it could get. In an empty alley with poorly lit conditions, and Wang Leyou, who had just risen like an undead. The sinister and eerie scene overwhelmed Xiao Luo and the two police officers. Xiao Luo stared at Miyazaki Ronjin’s patrol car and realized that its front was dented but there was no sign of blood on the ground. To his surprise, it was the patrol car that had sustained substantial damage from the impact.

Crack, crack, crack…

The ghastly sound of crackling bones suddenly echoed through the alley again. This time, it was even more frightening. It sounded like how a demon crushing a man’s body and drawing his bones out, and it was horrifying to the ears.

Miyazaki Ronjin still had his hand on Wang Leyou’s shoulder when the latter turned and suddenly attempted to strike him. Wang Leyou’s hand resembled a reptile’s claw. It was coarse and scaly on the surface, his fingers were tipped with black and sharp nails. The creature struck a heavy blow with its clawed hand, aiming for Miyazaki Ronjin’s chest, and it intended to kill.

Xiao Luo was alarmed, and he instantly dashed up and pushed Miyazaki Ronjin away. He blocked the blow with his palm and took the hit for his friend. There was no way Miyazaki Ronjin or any ordinary human could’ve survived that claw.

BAM!

The incoming claw smashed into Xiao Luo’s palm with explosive force, knocking him back a dozen steps or so before he could regain his balance.

Xiao Luo, usually calm and composed, gasped in awe at the force of the blow as this was beyond what he had expected. He was caught off guard. Who would believe that Wang Leyou’s strike could be that powerful? Was this “thing” really him?

He looked up and glared at Wang Leyou again, and what he now saw petrified him. That thing was undoubtedly Wang Leyou, but he was undergoing a strange transformation rapidly. Reptile-like scales were growing over his skin, densely packed like a suit of armor. Wang Leyou was turning into a hideous creature and his eyes were now completely white, making him appear as if he was possessed.

“Oh, my gosh, he… How did he suddenly turn into a monster?”

Kimura Akino was so shocked that his jaws dropped. How could a human suddenly transform into a monster covered in green scales? And it happened right before his eyes. Despite being hit by a speeding car, Wang Leyou remained unharmed.

Xiao Luo was similarly stunned as he realized that Wang Leyou was not breathing at all. Shouldn’t he be a corpse if he is not breathing? How could he be standing up and moving around? A deluge of questions filled Xiao Luo’s mind.

“Wang Leyou, Wang Leyou!”

Xiao Luo called out his name to see if he would react to it.

But there was no response from the creature. It was evident this name no longer meant anything to Wang Leyou.

It was quiet, and there were no other people in the empty alley. A chill breeze drifted through the dark passage and made the alley gradually got colder.

Miyazaki Ronjin drew his pistol and yelled, “Raise your hands! Wang Leyou, raise your hands!”

He too sensed a strange and dangerous aura emanating from Wang Leyou, and it felt the same as facing a blood-thirsty beast. Although it terrified him, he did not flinch.

Crack, crack, crack…

That same terrifying sound came from Wang Leyou again as he stomped toward Miyazaki Ronjin, oblivious to the pistol in his hand.

Miyazaki Ronjin gulped with some difficulty and broke into a cold sweat. Even his hands holding the pistol began to tremble slightly.

“Wang Leyou, stay where you are! I am warning you, do not take another step!”

It was evident that Wang Leyou had lost the ability to react to his warning. He seemed to be unaware of everything that was happening around him and only continued to approach Miyazaki Ronjin.

“First warning. Second warning. Third warning!”

BANG!

After the third warning, Miyazaki Ronjin pulled the trigger and fired an accurate shot that struck Wang Leyou’s shoulder.

CLANG!

All they heard was a metallic ringing sound and sparks flying off Wang Leyou’s body. The bullet ricocheted off his body and lodged into the tree trunk to his right.

Did it bounce off?

Did he actually deflect a bullet?

Miyazaki Ronjin and Kimura Akino were both dumbfounded, and no words could describe how shocked they were.

“Is his body protected by steel armor?” Kimura Akino asked, clearly horrified.

Xiao Luo was equally shocked and then he turned serious. He knew well that Wang Leyou was not wearing steel armor but had deflected the bullet off with his scaly body. It was evident that the densely packed scales covering his skin was providing him with such protection.

Exactly what did Wang Leyou go through that he turned into this?

Did the person or group that kidnapped them transform Wang Leyou into such a monster? Why did they send Wang Leyou here? To kill him or Miyazaki Ronjin?

All sorts of questions ran through his mind again. He wondered if this could be part of a nefarious plan to develop bio warriors. A scheme that was put together by a secret organization from the Ri nation; and their subjects were none other than the people of Hua nation.

If such was the case, then what of Fu Yiren?

It was too daunting to even think about the possibility, and Xiao Luo broke into a cold sweat the moment he arrived at that conclusion.

Wang Leyou surged toward Miyazaki Ronjin suddenly, and although smaller in size compared to Suzuki Ikuo’s two sumo wrestlers, the way he charged at Miyazaki Ronjin was far more intimidating than them. Wang Leyou was the embodiment of a demon who craved human flesh.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Miyazaki Ronjin fired multiple rounds, and every single shot clearly hit Wang Leyou. However, every round ricocheted off with that familiar metallic sound, and the shots did not harm him. Wang Leyou was as invincible as an Iron man fully enclosed in hardened steel.

“Miyazaki-san be careful!” Kimura Akino shouted.

Xiao Luo did not stay idle for long, and instead, he used his full potential and teleported close to Miyazaki Ronjin within a second.

“Get out!”

Before Miyazaki Ronjin could react, Xiao Luo had already pushed him aside with his elbow. Instantly, Xiao Luo spun around and struck out with his right hand. His talon-like fingers flashed toward Wang Leyou with a tremendous force behind it.

KAPOW!

In the dimly lit environment, Xiao Luo’s talon-like claw smashed fiercely into Wang Leyou’s lethal hand. And this time, the scale-covered monster was thrown back forcefully as if it had been struck by lightning, shuddering uncontrollably as it sailed in the air.

After he landed hard on the ground, the monster picked itself up with no delay and charged again. It was in a heightened state of frenzy, and the ominous sound of cracking bones accompanied its movements. It moved like a specter and closed the gap with Xiao Luo as it bounded forward several times.

At that moment, it was as quick as lightning!

As the scale-cover monster advanced on Xiao Luo, it growled and snarled like a zombie. It resembled the undead in the movies when they bayed for fresh blood and human flesh. Its right claw repeatedly struck at Xiao Luo’s throat. Wang Leyou, now transformed into this monster, was fighting like a beast eager to devour its prey.

Xiao Luo frowned and used his palm to block the incoming claw with precision.

However, the scale-covered monster had incredible strength, and it was almost invincible. Xiao Luo had by now used over seventy percent of his total strength to block this claw. Before he could make his next move, the monster was already initiating his next attack. Its other hand balled up into a fist and it swiftly threw a punch into Xiao Luo’s torso.

POW!It was a powerful strike and even with inner power guarding his internal organs, Xiao Luo felt that his insides squashed and was sent flying back like a cannonball.BOOM!Xiao Luo crashed into Miyazaki Ronjin’s patrol car in what sounded like a resounding explosion. Debris and parts from the car scattered everywhere and the hood caved in. The damage was so bad that it made the vehicle look like a toy car crushed by a rock, turning it into a pile of mess. The force embedded Xiao Luo into the crumpled body of the car, and in the dark environment, his partners suddenly lost sight of him.”Xiao Han-kun!”Kimura Akino screamed in fear. Both he and Miyazaki Ronjin were helpless to do anything, as this battle was beyond the capacity of mere humans.
